Musicians (and their teachers/parents) will appreciate this book! Janet Horvath discusses in detail all the elements of practicing and performing music, and gives thoughtful solutions for healthy musicianship. This book is fantastic for both prevention and rehabilitation of repetitive-stress and other common occupational hazards. Even young beginners can be shown some of the stretches and tools in this book for healthy posture and efficient, easy playing.
